At The Evans Group (TEG), we specialize in small-batch clothing manufacturing tailored for high-end designers. Based in Los Angeles, we offer low minimum order quantity (MOQ) production, allowing brands to produce limited quantities without the financial risks of large-scale manufacturing. This approach enables emerging designers to test new styles, respond swiftly to market trends, and maintain superior quality in every piece. By choosing TEG, you're partnering with a Los Angeles clothing manufacturer committed to sustainable fashion manufacturing, ensuring your creations are both exquisite and environmentally responsible.
Small-batch manufacturing allows designers to create limited quantities of garments, minimizing upfront costs and reducing the potential for excess inventory. This flexibility enables greater experimentation with designs, fabrics, and styles, allowing brands to test the market and respond to trends effectively.
Our small-batch production maintains the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship. Each garment receives meticulous attention to detail, ensuring that even limited runs meet the expectations of discerning high-end clientele.
By optimizing production processes and minimizing waste, small-batch manufacturing aligns with sustainable practices, appealing to environmentally conscious brands and consumers.

LOW MOQ manufacturing
LEAD TIMES
Low MOQ manufacturing allows you to get your production off the ground and test the market needs sooner.
The faster you can generate feedback and integrate improvements into your product, the better your final product will be.
PRODUCTION CONTROL
With small batch manufacturing you have more control and say in the production process and cycle.
You will have the ability to make changes to your garments quickly, meaning that you can respond and react to the market demand within your niche. This can give you a competitive edge as your merchandise adapts and delivers in a short time frame.
MARKET TESTING
We recognize that when you are introducing a new collection to the market it is advisable to test your styles in a limited run to analyze which colors, sizes, and styles receive the best feedback. This is why we keep our minimums low, with flexible studio level and factory level production options, in an effort to limit over-production.

Taunya Zilke
"I came to TEG as a very new designer and launched my first collection, ZETAYE, in 2024. I know that the strength of my collection is in large part due to the fact that I began this journey with a company with such high standards of quality, workmanship and expertise. Everyone at TEG was a pleasure to work with. Alicia was so good at seeing my vision and helping me choose the perfect fabrics. Walt, an unbelievably talented pattern maker, was able to bring my sketches to life with precision and attention to detail. And my samples were sewn so beautifully. They worked with me to perfect each style and made the process so enjoyable. Everywhere I took my patterns and samples, their work was noticed and complimented. They exceeded my expectations and I I could not recommend them more!"
Miranda Urrea
"We had the pleasure of working with TEG during the development process of our sweatsuit company. They went above and beyond every step of the way. We worked with Arturo Vera for sourcing, and he was extremely helpful, helping us select the best materials and twills, and recommending things we hadn't previously thought of. As we are not located in LA, he went to the different suppliers, Facetiming us and showing us different options, and organizing all of our sample requirements. We also worked with Gery Petrov for our pattern development. We were amazed by his knowledge and experience and he made us feel comfortable from the moment we first spoke to him. We went to LA to complete the fitting for our first sample and he was extremely attentive to all of the changes we wanted to make (although there were not many as he completely brought our vision to life). Even after our project was completed with TEG, Gery and Arturo have been extremely helpful with any follow up questions we have had, jumping on phone calls and quickly responding to emails. We absolutely loved working with TEG and we will definitely be working with them again in the future!"
Christina Sogi
"Our experience with TEG has been wonderful. Everyone has strong communication skills, are detailed, and have taken great care of us throughout our project. Eden was lovely and so responsive, providing all the information we needed to make our decision to work together. Alicia, our designer and who sourced our fabrics, and Gery our pattern maker are exceptional. They exceeded our expectations and I look forward to every meeting. We work together very well and couldn't be happier with our experience and samples. We constantly talk about how much we enjoy working with them and seeing our vision come to life. They are the best team! I would recommend them to everyone."

“I have had the honor of working with The Evans Group (Teg) out of Los Angele for a little over a year. I cannot express how wonderful the team has been. As an emerging designer, I appreciate all of the different options they have to get you up and running. The encouragement they provide along the way is unmatched. I love that the team has given me the ability to have confidence in my decisions and that they also encourage me to do things (once I am comfortable) on my own. I recently completed the "By your Side" mentorship program with Jennifer Evans. It was a dream to work with her. She is an industry expert with a wealth of knowledge! It was the best business decision I never knew I had to make! There are many reasons I would recommend Teg, but one of the most important is their attention to detail and quality of work. They hold their team to high standards which leads to quality work. When you choose Teg, you are not only choosing to have your work done by a team of experts, but you also have the backing of the best clothing manufacturers for startups in the industry. I cannot wait to continue to build out my journey with them. THANK YOU”

Remy Johnson
“I am a co-founder of retail consulting company, rāv collective, and worked with Teg on behalf of a client of ours. With over 15 years in the industry, the Teg team was one of the strongest development and production teams we've worked with - they are a dream! The project consisted of development and production of a small capsule. The Evans Group, as a top-notch clothing manufacturer, was so communicative, detailed, and thorough! Another quality that I was impressed by was how transparent they were throughout the process. Their customer service was some of the best we've experienced - they showcased the true meaning of partnership. The quality and craftsmanship of their work was also great. They truly know and love what they do. I would highly recommend Teg to any small business. We hope to work with them again in the future!”
Alix Davidon
“I found Teg after several failed attempts at development and production. Because of my experiences in the fashion world, I was very cautious. The Evans Group, as a trusted clothing manufacturer, has taken the time to build trust with me, and even though I chose to start with only two garments, I have felt important and valued by all the team members I've worked with so far. I received my first two garment samples and was blown away by the quality of the construction and fit. I don't take such compliments lightly as a seamstress myself! I have since added services and look forward to further building the collection. Thank you, Jennifer, Alicia, and Walt! Working with you all has been a pleasure, and I'm excited to continue what we've started. I can advise anyone getting started in this business that patience is one of the most valuable assets. It takes time if the quality is important to you. I highly recommend Teg to any serious designer or brand.”

“The TEG team is absolutely wonderful. I’m so grateful I found a factory who provides such a hands on and knowledgeable service. The pattern makers are extremely talented and everyone at TEG is patient and responsive. I feel so confident and relaxed knowing I’m working with TEG. There are a lot of difficult and problematic factories out there and I can confidently say you’re in great hands with TEG. They’re ethical, easy to work with and provide exactly what I need plus more. They've executed my vision beautifully and I fully trust TEG to help develop and produce my collections. I'm truly so grateful to work with TEG!!”
JP Park
"I am very glad to have found The Evans Group and to have been able to work with them on my projects! From the get-go they were very professional trendsetters, always responding to my emails in a timely manner and making sure all my questions/concerns were answered. Alex did a fantastic job in making sure my production run went smoothly. I felt very comfortable working with Gery on my pattern changes and he did a great job in making sure the garment came out how I wanted. Also want to give thanks to Noah for consistently being on top of all correspondence and making sure everything was shipped out and received properly. I will definitely talk positively about my experience working with TEG, known for their expertise in custom costumes, and would love to work with them again!"
Sarah Armendarez
"I've worked in the apparel industry for 12 years. This group is one of the most talented I've worked with. They work hard to bring your design vision or creatives to life. The patternmaker, Gery, is probably the best I've ever worked with. His background in men's tailoring, as well as design, means that his patternmaking skills are those of a true artist in a creative director (and there really is an art to achieving beautiful fit in a garment). The sewing team also goes above and beyond to meet our deadlines, and the garments are always sewn perfectly. I wouldn't work with anyone else but Teg, known for their expertise in custom costumes, at this point."
